Oh, this should be good. Voting... and... Done. Gosh, I hope we can get enough votes in...
Thanks to the OP (Vinkel) for bringing this to my attention.
Here's hoping for the best!!

I'd urge people to vote and spread the word it can help keep the x10 going for a little longer!

I'll say one thing, just because it gets ported officially by them doesn't mean it will be any less buggy than the ones already out. In fact in might be a lot more buggy.
There is an official port for my current phone and it is buggier than the unofficial Ports
I'm not trying to be negative, just letting you guys know.

Things like that can happen but having more people developing for our phone is always good and another good thing is they have the source codes

Yesss, Official miui port is nice but an official cm port is the dream, I'd love to see that & enjoy it for a while before upgrading
Anyways of course gonna vote for this too because although personally don't care that much but as I said it would be nice & hopefully will help having more stable roms(be it official or not) and after all we're a community, right?

Cm7 is going official isn't it? I thought that's what freexperias goal was?
Ephumuris

Don't you technically need an official cm before you can even get an official miui?
Since miui is based off of cm I thought

Yes. Because as awesome as MIUI is, they do just wait for a stable cm7 for a device then add MIUI to it.

Whatever it is based off, I just really like MIUI'S usability.
There was a windows phone 7 theme and gogmsh, it looked so nice on the phone and when I was forced to go back to stock, I could not stand the ugliness of the keys and theme etc.
Now I'm in cm7, its fast but no where near as good looking as MIUI.

get cranky all you want, all i'm saying is cm is extremely important to Android development.
They probably can't even port it without an official
Cm ROM to use as a base.

VOTED!!!

ah it would be great to get updates every friday!
voted too!
maybe the mods would like to sticky this

Hey guys..
My vote also goes for MIUI ROM..
It's just superb.. just a few improvements.. like camera zoom working.. data drop.. Wi-Fi problem.. auto camera flash.. hotspots..
But still it's beautiful.. love it..

Galaxy S Plus i9001: ICS Port

Hey guys!
I'm tired, .... tired of waiting for an ICS port / Offical Update to ICS for my phone!
I've waited and hoped that anyone would do anything, ... but nothing happened. And it don't seems if anything will happen.
Now the better News.
I decided to do the work!!! After the "§$%&/()=* Christmas i gonna start. I waited and hoped that someone other does the main work (bootable ICS on i9001), on which I can continue but %&*§ .... noone wanted
So it will be me, doing the stuff. I know its damn much to do, ... but who cares, I gonna do that!!! But U don't need to ask me every day if it works. I think I need 2-3 weeks to have a bootable ROM.
peace out
Frosbite

im sure someone is willing to help. heck, if i know those coding stuff i would not mind to help out. anyway thanks in advance for doing it

No-one hasn't been able to do it since there isn't roms for samsung phones. Only on Nexus or so. Sgs2 will get it later next year.
IF samsung is gonna give sgs+ user's ics it will take time.
Sony put out beta version out but it's mainly to see how it's looking & for developers and therefore not working (no calls, no sms, no wifi...).
Good luck with your project.

how are things going?

hey guys.
i wanted to tell you the current situation.
the port i already booting, i can hear the sound, but 2 problems left for publishing an "alpha version". display is not working yet and the touchscreen also isn't working yet. of course the other functions also don't work yet, but iam on a good way
cheers
EDIT: btw, thanks manoo2, your idea using a Arc S ROM was a great one

I think moving that thread to the 'Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development' category will be a good idea.

frostbite88 good to see u are making some progress u might want to use some of the gingerbread drivers for the touchscreen and other basic stuff like cellular radio i think that might just work https://opensource.samsung.com/index.jsp;jsessionid=E3B32E698F4D167D4AADE52041540CE9

[Poll] Who wants WebOS on Desire Z ? VOTE AWAY !!!!

Hey y'all, i'm just asking whether you'd like WebOS running on the desire z. Think about it, the desire z would be AWESOME with webos, and it would be (relatively) easy to compile, since it's got the same processor as the Veer.

webOS is fine...
but i was hoping someone could make a windows mobile ROM... but that's clearly impossible since its not open source...
oh well... but i vote for webOS.... even if its not that good, it would help the developement...

Yep, that's my understanding as well. The hardware drivers don't exist, so they would have to be made from scratch. A huge amount of work to get what is . . .yes a dead OS onto our phone. So unless the OP or somebody he knows is planning to take this on as a project, this is kind of a pointless post.
Other than that, more variety on ROMs is always a good thing. If you don't want it, don't flash it. So there is no real "downside" to having WebOS ported over.

Other than the "because we can" aspects why webOS?
I would much prefer a windows phone Rom...
Sent from my HTC Flyer using XDA App

I'm new to here... but this poll really suit me, as I have currently a Desire Z & a Pre 3! I would love to have webOS on Desire Z but I prefer vertical keyboard. Horizontal keyboard is good but a bit too large for rapid typing.
So my answer is: if I don't have Pre 3, Excellent to have webOS on Desire Z. But since I have one already, it's also a good idea for me to have a Android phone, mostly for apps and games.

Well, "Everything is relative", a smart guy once said. So true. and i must admit, maybe i exaggerated a bit by saying "easy", 'cause nothing i've ever seen related to coding seems easy at all. i know nothing about coding, but i do know that if you can make the processor run without modifications, then the rest won't be too hard. After all, it is a SoC . I may be wrong, but i can't help it.

This would be more like Proof-of-Concept in my books...regardless, I'd definitely give it a whirl!

sorry, but i think i puked a little when i read the topic... I was using webos on my touchpad and damn it was more of a scientific demonstration of what it can do.. it's painfully unpolished.

I've never seen webos. Hellz bellz yeah ill ride that donkey for a day. It cannot possibly be any worse than Amazons horriibly kanged android.
I also want to see XP on it since the fella in that other thread brought it up. MSDOS too.

As HP was released a complete WebOS source and there are GNex port, so any hope to have this charm thing on our phone!

It would be interesting to see, but that's definitely a LOT of work.

Let's see that what's we have here? The most problem with porting job is linux kernel and drivers compatible and fully functionals working. We have some working Android kernel 3.x, the most close version compared with official Linux kernel, WebOS is based on Linux kernel also. If developers still interesting on porting it then they can do it a quite easy than the time before kernel 3.x got working.

ParanoidAndroid for the TF101

I have been trying the past few days to make a port from source but I don't know how to code and the code wont fully download.
If anybody else wants to try, please do cause I really want it ParanoidAndroid on my device here.

My limited knowledge of Paranoid Android leads me to ask - why do you want it on the Tf?
Isn't it designed to give a tablet like experience on phones?
As well made as it is, I wasn't overly keen on the whole tiny u.i on my sgs2.
Otherwise I'm not sure what we would be missing out on.

Application-specific DPI settings would make me one happy panda.

As stated earlier, this is my first proper build (running a CM10 build on my phone, not released though). It would be nice to get others to help, at the moment, ADB doesn't work, everything I have tested is working, including Paranoid Settings... None of my builds seems to have ADB, so i do need to look into that!

No chinese smartphone vendor releases their source..only big brands releases their sources...like samsung,sony...it will take some time for gionee to make up their mind..i hop otherwise the E7 is great device..sure it has changed the thought of china device of some ppl atleast me

wht chng ur mind?
bro e7 hs a very imprsv hardware...
bt without devlopers support why we need that?
do u think we will hv a lot developers support for e7?
will gionee release kernel ?

My opinion
Brother, if gionee keeps it secret of kernels. Then how can we develop the custom roms it's having great hardware but poor software, the kit Kat is lot smoother than 4.2.2 everyone wants to have their hands on new versions . on the other hand many cheaper phones than e7 are having 4.4.2. Whose interface is far more better than the stupid amigo in which you can't even arrange the icons according to the name. No home button, laggy ui it's better to go for a small device with kit Kat which has smooth interface cod people rearly use cam and ram for games. I wish to see kit Kat on this device, I Adm planning to get one plus from Dubai by seeking this device
This device is like a Ferrari at the speed of 60 kmph , max speed

so there is no possibility to get kernel from gionee?

saying according to their company policy they dont release kernel sources for more information they can call this number between 9 am to 7 pm.
+91 8800348555 i didn't call since im clueless incase they get technical.
Kinda disappointed in buying this phone looking at the hardware i thought reglardless of companies ****ty update policy i would atleast get custom roms which seems not tbe be the case any more.

Kinda disappointed in buying this phone looking at the hardware i thought reglardless of companies ****ty update policy i would atleast get custom roms which seems not tbe be the case any more.

just to make it a little clear here, it not for them to decide to whether to release the kernel source or not. It comes under the GPL license and they MUST release it. and I am pretty sure whoever you talked to simply has no idea what kernel is or what we are talking about. its quite hopeless to talk to them. they are like pre configured answering machines. they know nothing, they understand nothing, they just have standard replies.

I know its mandatory for them to release.
But they don't do it not sure who can enforce it, in all honestly i have no idea why google give licences to ****ty oem's who dont follow the 18 month update policy and not release kernel sources.

Exactly. Accept it. I thrice asked the same question - Are you a bot? if no, try to retype the characters shown and then typed some random characters and everytime they gave the same reply. That's kaputt!
